Abstract
A method is provided for controlling a device by a portable terminal in a device automation system. Upon detecting an execution request for a single remote control mode for remotely controlling a device, the portable terminal sends a single remote control mode execution request message for requesting to execute the single remote control mode, to the device. Upon receiving from the device a single remote control mode execution response message being responsive to the single remote control mode execution request message, the portable terminal switches an operation mode thereof to the single remote control mode. Upon receiving from the device a device data message including device data output by the device, the portable terminal outputs the device data. Upon detecting a remote control command to remotely control the device while outputting the device data, the portable terminal sends a remote control message including the remote control command to the device.
